  • Prep: 15 mins

  • Cook: 25 mins

  • Serves: 4

Ingredients

  • 1 spray olive oil
  • 1 medium zucchini
  • 2 large carrot
  • 1 medium celery
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 350 g lean beef mince
  • 8 sheet filo pastry
  • 2 tsp butter

Variations

Swap out the butter for an egg wash to brush and seal each roll. Make an easy egg wash by whisking one egg and adding one tbs cold water. 

Method

  1. Pre-heat oven to 180°C. Line a baking tray with baking paper.
  2. Spray a non-stick fry pan with olive oil and add the zucchini carrot celery and garlic. Cook on low until the vegetables have softened. Don't allow to brown. Add to a large bowl along with the mince and mix well. Divide the mixture into 8 and shape into 8 sausage-shaped pieces.
  3. Unroll the filo pastry sheets with the short end nearest to you. Place one of the sausages on the filo fold the edges in and roll up. Brush the top with a little butter, and run along the edge to seal. Repeat with the rest of the sausage rolls.
  4. Place on the baking tray and bake for approximately 20-25 minutes or until the pastry is golden and crispy and the meat is cooked through.

Note: The sausages and filo are both suitable to freeze separately but don't freeze the finished sausage rolls.
